Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Home Care: Discussion
Mr. Damian Ginley:
Public service travel is recognised in the new contracts as part of the hours of a contract. It is well established there. Compensation is paid to people who use their cars in the form of mileage. There are also lone working policies established in the HSE which provide mechanisms to support our staff. Advances in technology are also being considered in the HSE to assist people, such as access to phones, etc.
